Mastering Mindfulness: The Skill of Focus and Being Present

A modern-day Hercules, air traffic controller, Navy veteran, and world record holder, Mike McCastle seems to exist at the convergence of concentration and clarity. Although incredibly authentic and down-to-earth, he demonstrates superhuman strength when it comes to his capacity to tune out the noise and keep all the balls in the air.

This month, I dive deep into Mike's strong sense of purpose that manifests in his demigod-like ability to focus on solving whatever challenges come his way.

Mike McCastle is an accomplished endurance athlete, multiple world record holder, and renowned performance coach, and is a motivational speaker. He founded the Twelve Labors Project, a charitable initiative, during his 11-year service in the U.S. Navy, with the goal of redefining human potential and inspiring others to achieve greatness. McCastle's expertise in performance, mental strength, leadership and team cohesion has been sought after by high-achievers from various professional fields, and he has worked with top teams from Fortune 500 companies, the FBI and the U.S. Military. Colin O’Brady, an acclaimed polar explorer, also sought McCastle's help in training for his historic solo and unsupported trek across Antarctica and man-powered row across the Drake Passage. McCastle's charitable efforts and expertise in mental strength and physical conditioning have been featured in over 100 media outlets. In his free time, he is actively involved in charitable efforts related to veteran mental health and Parkinson's Disease.
